All Your Promises Were False

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] You wrote them on the back of a receipt Beside the coffee stain and your old address Said, “I’ll be there when the weather turns” But winter found me waiting by myself [Pre-Chorus] I kept the paper in the kitchen drawer Like proof that words could still mean more [Chorus] All your promises were false Every doorway led to a wall I gave you every honest part You gave me reasons to distrust my heart All your promises were false And I’m done carrying them all [Verse 2] Your jacket’s still behind the bedroom door The zipper catches when I move it down I hear your key in every passing car Then remember you don’t live here now [Pre-Chorus] I learned the shape of your goodbye By watching how you wouldn’t meet my eyes [Chorus] All your promises were false Every doorway led to a wall I gave you every honest part You gave me reasons to distrust my heart All your promises were false And I’m done carrying them all [Bridge] No, I won’t call when the night gets heavy No, I won’t wait for your hands to steady You can keep the story that makes you kind I’m taking back what you left behind [Final Chorus] All your promises were false But I’m not breaking where I fall I gave you every honest part Now I’m rebuilding the pieces of my heart All your promises were false And I’m done carrying them all [Outro] The receipt is fading in the drawer I don’t need it anymore
